    I didn't say anything about emo. You phrase ideas well.

    OD's are not "nice"

    They are often extremely painful, and often ineffective. The body fights like hell to ward off death. Many survive the attempt but live with major system failure.

    It is a complete fallicy to think one can take enough drugs and peacefully nod off to eternal sleep. Your body has a fight to live, even when your mind is tired.

    Anybody who spells "awkwardly" correctly has my respect.

    I agree with Wondergirl, you write very well for a 16 year old.

    Why not write all your feelings down? Share your thoughts with others.

    Instead of thinking of all the stuff you can't change, why not think of the stuff you can.

    You mentioned animals in one of your posts. Do you like animals? If so, why not volunteer at a shelter? They need people all the time, to walk the dogs, spend time with the cats and bunny's. Being around animals really helps with depression, and you'd be helping these animals too.

    Why not tell us what you like and we can go from there.

    My dear please please please talk to an adult, or go to the emergency room right away!! There IS help and there IS a light at the end of the dark dark tunnel!

    I tried to overdose when I was 16. Really I only made myself look foolish cause I tried to overdose on dimatap. Didn't kill me. Just made me VERY VERY sleepy for a while and then I woke up still in the same place I was before.

    Killing yourself, or even TRYING to kill yourself is NOT going to solve anything. You can have a happy and loving life I promise.

    Remember you are loved and people would miss you. I don't even know you and I know for a fact that I would be SO SO SO SO sad and upset if I were to log on to these boards and hear that you took your life. I love you my dear sister in life, and I don't want to lose you. Too many young ladies have been lost already.

    *hugs* if you EVER need to talk, feel free to send me a private message. And remmeber your always welcome to post on the boards about anythign you are feeling.

    But please go see someone you trust, or go to the emergency room right away

    I feel the same way the only difference is that I'm 41yrs old. I've been thinking on ways to go but I love my family too much to even try. Do me a favor, just take it one day at a time and maybe things will turn around for you. I know it's contradicting of me to tell u this when I'm going through the same emotions but you're still very young. You have time to turn it around!! I wish I was 15 again, then I would change a lot of things I did in my life. You still have that opportunity.
